ordination to the constitational authoritics
of the country and officers of the law. is
the foundation of all good government. In
our armies, discipline must be established;
subordination must be regarded, and troops
must not consider themselves independent
of the constituted authorities of the iand.
Without subordination and discipline, an
army is as inefficient against an enemy
and as frightful to the citizens, as a mob
governed by violent impulse of feeling,
where all command and none are willing
to obey. It was obedience to rule and
discipline that enatled Greece to triumph
over her enemies, and Romte to subjugate
the world. Order will always triumph
over confusion. Similar conduct on the
parr of Texas will ensure to her arms vic
tory and independence. All her past
tmisfortunes can be traced to the fatal in
flueuce of discord and insubordination.
We are now called upon to act in uni

By the steamer Newbi, Capt. MtcNul

that Halleek Tustenugg has come i

with Col. Worth. Or a few hours

sufTered severely in slhm igagemlent, and
e new proposes to sunder. He has
again gtine out to bring ipeople itn, some
sixty ot scventy, includitat least twenty
warriors. Col. Worth agiven him thec
assurance that he shall bmadle a Chief,
which, together with some other sudu
mems held out to him, leave na room to
doubt that he is incere. In short, he has
been hotly pursued for months pasit by onr
indef'atigable troops, and is reduced to ex
tremity.

to observe Gen. Mnrtomb's treaty. Hal

there is every reason to believe that the
